on november 27th, a pivotal cease fire took hold between israel and the lebanese resistance group hezbollah. under the terms of this agreement, anchored in the principles of un resolution 1701, israeli forces will gradually with. from southern lebanon, a region poised to be secured by the lebanese army and state security forces, while hezbol commits to of stepping back from its positions along the border south of the latani river, yet beneath the surface of the ceasefire lies a complex narrative of triumph and turmoil. in lebanon, jubileum celebrations erupted in the streets with many viewing has be lost resilience as a definitive victory over israel.

inside the israeli occupied territories, however, the mood is starkly different. a recent poll revealed that more than 60% of the population feels the israeli prime minister, benjamin netanyahu has failed in its military objectives against hezbullah, leaving him to cast the ceasefire as a tactical success. on this edition of iran today, we will delve deeper into the ceasefire, it's broader implications and the role the islamic republic plays in this regard. following the announcement of the ceasefire deal with hazbollah, israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu said that this development allows him to focus on iran. at the same time, iran's foreign minister has said that tehran reserves its retaliation right against israel. given the current instability, any rash actions could quickly reignite the flames of conflict in the region.

to cover up his failures. netanyahu, in your speech, you stated that the conditions of the army and the economy were such that you could not continue the war with hisbullah, and now of you want to focus on iran under these circumstances. netanyahu, in your latest speech, you said you would destroy hamas, which means that after all this time you still have not been able to do so. you said you would release the prisoners of war, which means that after all this time you st have not been able to do that either, you are still using the future tens for your old goals. if you want to add another item to your list of failures, then you can focus on iran as well. the fundamental route of the conflict in the region lies in the israeli regime's continued occupation of palestinian, lebanese and syrian territories. as long as israel maintains its aggressive occupation, wars and conflicts will persist.

the solution to this longstanding problem is straightforward. israel must withdraw from the occupied territories and put an end to its occupation. only through this withdraw can there be hope for lasting peace and stability in the region, breaking the vicious cycle of violence. we also ask dr. zari about whether iran plans to cancel its retaliatory operation against israel in light of the regime's recent agreement on a cease fire with heizballah. no, not at all. iran sees no connection between israel's aggression against its territory, and the regime's cease fire agreement with lebanon, and iran will not give up its right to retaliate in any way. these two are completely separate matters and have no relation to each other. operation true promise 3 will be carried out sooner or later. it is just a matter of time, not whether it will happen.

iran's territorial sovereignty has been violated by israel and this regime will face the consequences. the cease fire should be evaluated. in light of hezbollah's effective resistance against israel. the regime did not shy away from any criminal acts, including targeting hospitals and residential areas to bring the group to its knees. however, it was hisbullah that through its resistance, an effective operations deep inside the occupied territories brought the regime into the brink of chaos, if not collapse, and it was tel aviv that put forward the proposal for a cease fire. miss.

the israelies expected that after the killing of citizens, operations would stop, but in practice they saw that these missile and drone operations increased significantly. this indicates that the israelies failed in their objective of stopping hisballah's operations. israel left no stone and turn in its efforts to dispirlah and force its surrender. beginning on september 17th and 18th, israel executed extensive. informations, including the detonation of hagers and walkietakis to destabilize the group. at the same time, its relentless bombardment of residential areas predominantly inhabited by shia communities, aimed to incite an insurgency against hezballah or spark sectarian strife reminiscent of

lebanon's devastating civil war from 1975 to 1990. however, these brutal tactics backfired as they unified the lebanese people, including we saw then in the text of the seasfire there was no sign of this so-called new order. was merely asked to return behind the liten river, similar to what was requested in resolution 1701 back in 2006. the israelis were looking for something more than resolution 1701, which of course they failed to achieve. the

disarmanment of, which was another goal of israel never occurred. these failures in the war against israel have led to increased. dissatisfaction in the occupied territories against netanyahu and his cabinet. israel's acknowledgement of a cease fire came as it recognized the mounting tool on its forces with hesbollah's rockets targeting haifa and tel aviv and millions seeking refuge in shelters. israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu now perceived internationally as a war criminal was forced to admit that a shortage of weaponry contributed to the decision for a truice.

of this regime under heavy fire. this situation was new and intolerable for israel. on that day, hisballah demonstrated that it could carry out such attacks against israel for extended periods. therefore, the israelis had no choice but to accept a cease fire. the israeli foreign minister had previously declared disarming as a condition for the ceastfire. however, this condition was never met, revealing is... inability to achieve its objectives. even when the group's leaders and key commanders were targeted by israeli forces, hezbolah maintained its cohesion and continued its military and political activities. new data released hours before the seasfire reveals the catastrophic losses inflicted by hisbullah on northern israeli

settlements. according to israeli newspaper, yedyath ahoranat, over 9,00 buildings and 700 vehicles have been damaged. were destroyed by hezbullah operations against northern israel since the war began. we also said with mr. muhammad khajee of the scientific research and middle east strategic studies sent. and weakening hisbullah ultimately means weakening the entire resistance access. therefore israel's war with

hisballah was driven by a strategic objective. israel made every effort to inflict the maximum damage on hizbullah, including the assassination of hisbollah leaders and senior commanders as well as extensive attacks in southern lebanon. however, the point is that despite all these attacks. was still able to target various areas of israel. let us not forget that israel claimed it wanted to create a secure environment for the settlers of the northern occupied territories by attacking lebanon, but this goal was not only unachieved, but we also saw that hizbollah's missile attacks this time targeted deep into the occupied territories. additionally, no matter how hard israel tried, it could not occupy... southern lebanon. this situation was costly for the israeli regime and as a result it was forced to accept a seesfire. in

a year, over 170 journalists have been confirmed dead and palestine murdered by the israeli regime. there has been no other war since records have been kept where this many journalists have been. build in such a short period of time. these atrocities are not repeated ever again, and that support is something you can do by watching and sharing their content. we have a lot more to cover today, but let's take a moment

to catch up on the latest headlines. hello everyone, welcome to the new section of this program. here we'll go over some important news headlines. aljazira: hezbollah chief says we'll work with lebanon army to implement cease fire. hezbollah considers the ceasefire to signal a victory larger than 2006, but remains ready for war, sleader said. in his first televised address. since the truth went into effect, hezbollah secretary general naim qasim said on friday that he did not envision problems or disagreement with the army, which under the terms the deal will deploy to southern lebanon over 60 days as hezbollah fighters and israely forces withdraw. the resistance will be ready to prevent the enemy from taking advantage of lebanon's weakness along with our partners, first and foremost the army, he added. reuters: israel hezballah truth holds display. slavanese began to journey home, cars and vans piled high with mattresses, suitcases and even furniture stream through the

the regime suffered heavy losses in southern lebanon. over the past year, netanyahu has milked us tax payers of tens of billions of dollars to fund his war crimes, all while enjoying full us military support and political cover. he was still forced to plead for a cease fire after heavy casualties in southern lebnon, said adochchi. hisbala once again shattered the myth. of israel's invincibility, high time for israel to accept defeat in gaza 2, he added. tehran times hezballah thanks iran for 14 months of support in face of israeli attacks. following wednesday ceasefire, the hisballar resistant movement issued a statement thanking iran for his steadfast support during the recent month of israeli aggression against lebanon. the statement specifically highlights the crucial role played by the leader of the islamic revolution, ayatollah sayid ali khameneni and the significant diplomatic efforts undertaken by iranian officials. hazballah singled out the lebanon visits of iranian foreign minister sayid abbas

araraqchi, parliament speaker mohammed baqir khalibav and senior advisor to leader ali. jonny as critical demonstrations of solidarity during the height the conflict. these visits provided crucial support throughout the israely aggression, the statement read. furthermore, hasbula acknowledged the injury sustained by the iranian ambassador to lebanon mushtabo amamani during the september israely pajor attacks and honored the memory of the late iranian foreign minister hussein amir abdollahian praising their dedication and steadfast support. the statement also expressed appreciation for the strong support provided by the leadership. of the islamic revolution guards core, irgc, and thank you for joining us in this section. please do stay tuned for the main narrative. iran has undeniably played a crucial role in the recent cease fire between lebanon and israel. following israel's attacks on hezballah over the past few months, iran worked diligently to mitigate further damage to its

longstanding ally, viewing hazbullah as the vital component of the resistance front. changing security equations. after all, heizbollah is an influential force in the resistance access and one of iran's oldest allies, and therefore teran had a strong motivation to prevent this trend. one of the measures taken by iran was to increase its support for hizbollah, ensuring that despite the blows hisbollah had suffered, the group could

maintain its structure and continue its military operations. a diplomatic environment conducive to a sease fire between israel and hisbullah. iran announced its support for the plan of lebanon's political leaders and hizbullah in establishing a cease fire. during multiple visits by iranian officials to lebanon, particularly during the recent trip of dr. ali larijani, advisor to the leader of the

islamic revolution, special emphasis was placed on iran's full support for the sis. iran aimed to ensure that hisbullah would not suffer further blows and would not allow israel to impose its demands on them. hezballah was established in 1982 during the lebanese civil war as a direct response to the israeli invasion of lebanon. the ideals of justice and resistance championed by the islamic revolution. resonated deeply with lebanese shias, leading to a burgining connection between hezbollah and iran. this leadership was crucial for hesbollah's formation and growth as iranian support provided the group with ideological backing, military training and essential financial resources. throughout the 1980s and 1990s, iran continued to enhance hisbolas capabilities

through direct military assistance, facilitated by the iranian revolution guard core. to defend the oppressed against their oppressors, this principle underpins iran's support for resistant groups in palestine and lebanon. alliance between iran and hezballah deepened significantly during and after the 2006 lebanon war, where hezballah successful confrontation with israeli forces shattered the

perception of israeli invincibility. in the long run, in your opinion, do you think that iran's support of the resistance access and reinforcing the resistance access military capabilities would actually lead to regional peace, or would it on the opposite, would it actually lead to escalating tensions in the region? has always been one of the reasons for tensions throughout the region due to its efforts to occupy other territories. therefore, at the heart of tehran's confrontation with

israel lies the effort to establish lasting peace in their region. this victory not only solidified hesbollah status as a formidable resistance movement within lebanon, but also reinforces ties to iran, which celebrated hezbulah as a symbol of defiance against israel and western dominance in the region, the alliance took on a new dimension during the war in syria that erupted in 2011 as fighters interven to support president government against western back terrorists. iran's financial and military backing intensified during this period, further solidifying their alliance. one of the important points regarding the west asia region is that it is a... crisis center, a crisis in one country can easily spill over to the rest of the region. in this context, it is natural that iran would not be indifferent to original crises, not least for

its own national interest, and if something happens to its allies such as his bull in lebanon, iran will not only be indifferent but also will make every effort to resolve that issue. the important point is that the enemy currently engaged with hezbullah in lebanon sees iran as its ultimate target and wishes. to enter into a conflict with iran, if it can, and if countries like the united states assist it. israel has recently announced that it wants to focus on iran. in short, iran's support for hizbullah is in a way a form of self protection. iran has consistently positioned itself as a steadfast supporter of hezbollah, willingly extending assistance to this libanese resistance group, despite significant financial and political burdens, such support and...

heard the slogan from the nile to the euphrates. the israelis claim they want to occupy all the areas between these two rivers. however, they are lying. according to documents from both israelis and the british, this regime was established to dominate the entire west asia, and it is evident that without resistance against this regime, the interests of all nations in the region would be ad risk. after the establishment of the islamic republic, iran embedded in its constitution, support for freedom fighters across the world. according to the iranian constitution, article 154, the islamic republic of iran has as its ideal human felicity

throughout human society and considers the attainment of independence, freedom, and rule of justice and truth to be the right of all people of the world. accordingly, while scrupulously refraining from all forms of interference in the internal affairs of other nations, it supports the... support for the resistance germany for nearly five decades, this itself is the greatest support for resistance groups at the regional and global level. if iran is nothing else, this alone constitutes the greatest group. in fact, over the years iran has become a model for resistance groups, proving that it is possible to stand against the united states and

have drawn strength from iran's actions against global arrogance. iran's support for hesbolah stems from a combination of moral, religious and strategic motivations. following israel's occupation of palestine and subsequent incursions into lebanon, which led to the occupation of southern lebanon for 18 years, hazballah emerged as a key player in resisting israeli aggression. iran's backing was instrumental in facilitating. military operations, which ultimately forced the israeli army to retreat in 2000. this support alliance with iran's view of israel as an existential threat, not just to lebanon, but to the entire region and beyond, by aiding resistance groups like hazbullah, the islamic republic fulfills its moral and religious obligations while simultaneously working to contain an enemy that this regards international law and national sovereignty.

"the volatile nature of west asia, characterized by an arms race and geopolitical rivalries, necessitates a strong resistance strategy against external threats, particularly from israel, a regime that has been armed and supported by the united states since its inception. iran perceives the us backed israeli agenda which aims to destabilize the region and disintegrate larger states as a direct threat to its existence. thus, iran's support for hizballah and resistance groups is not only a matter of ideological commitment, but also a calculated response to the realities on the ground, ensuring a survival and influence in a region brought with conflict and instability. that's all for today, thank you for watching from the whole team. please do join us against same times next week to see what else is on. until next time. take care.
